The appetite effect kicks in within the same meal, about 15-20 minutes after drinking it. Any visible change on the scale depends on your overall routine, not the trick alone.

The appetite piece is fast and predictable. Weight change is not, it's the sum of your whole diet over weeks, so two people using the same recipe can see very different results.
Quick Take
Fast for fullness, slow and variable for the scale. Consistency across your whole routine matters more than the drink itself.
Where the 15-20 Minute Window Comes From
That timing isn't arbitrary, it's roughly how long it takes for a protein-and-fluid preload to register as fullness before your next bite, which is why the standard gelatin trick recipe calls for drinking it 15-30 minutes before eating rather than right at the table. Drink it too close to the meal and you lose most of the timing advantage.
